Noisy cabin - conclusion
I'm very surprised those of you who also went from the E53 to the E70 don't hear a difference. Both my E53s were tight and quiet. I never heard cars whizzing by, road noise etc. It seems like all outside noises are amplified in the E70....Do I have super hearing powers? Oh wait, I'm a woman, we hear EVERYTHING

Strange indeed, but why were the window motors replaced? Those are inside the door.

I didn't have an E53 so I can't compare the E70 to that. I have no wind (or traffic or tire) noise at all.
Only time was this last weekend when I drove a long distance with a cargo box on top but even that was better than I'd previously experienced with cars and SUVs. |

The reason that I'm asking is that I thought the rear right door seal might have had a problem but I only heard it the one time. It has not re-occurred. |

I'll check it out but thought it was a mute point after hearing the noise levels in the other two E70s

What did the service guy think of the noise level in comparison with all the cars involved?

We did all kinds of tests with the other E70s and the results were the same. Sitting at the driveway entrance on route 1 and listening to the traffic go by. Him outside and me inside talking to each other with the windows up, first with the engine off and then with it running. Stereo on and how much you can hear it from outside with the windows closed. You get the idea. He agreed with me that the E53 was quieter and so are the other models. Off the record he thinks that the E70 is not insulated as well as the E53 was in an effort to keep the weight down. If you've ever opened the hood on an E53 and on an E70 you know what I mean.
